Shop Stool

With inspiration from Sailor’s recent project (http://lumberjocks.com/Sailor), I built my own shop stool. Luckily, I’m also working on a new bathroom vanity, so I just added a half sheet of birch 3/4 to my shopping list. Despite the need for more practice cutting circles with a jig saw, I’m happy to finally have a place to sit in my garage shop. From drawing to finish took me about half a day. Not bad for a weekend project. I’m still debating on a quick BLO finish or leaving it as is.

That is a great stool; in my shop I would have to add padding for my boney butt. Finish? Well my stool is multicolored from stains and finishes and other such paint and grime. (been used as a sawhorse many times). Just gives it caricature.
